Grid Art Project



I used tissue paper and poster paper to create this grid art of Cinderella's Castle with a Mickey Mouse in the center. I used the photoshop image below to create it. I took a picture of the castle with the mouse head in it and made a 30x39 pixel image. Since it was black and white, I then painted each pixel a different color in order to make the image come to life. I then took my poster paper and created a 30x39 cm grid where each square became a pixel. I would rip little pieces of tissue paper, ball it up, and then glue it to the grid in order to recreate the image. The finished product is seen above. The black and white castle is the original image that the grid art was based off of.

Importance of the Vacuum Tube

Vacuum tubes were revolutionary in terms of radio, television, and computers. In terms of radio and television, vacuum tubes were essential in terms of broadcasting. They gave these devices the opportunity to cast higher frequencies, allowing them to transmit signals that could be received worldwide. As technology advanced and the vacuum tubes are tweaked, the signals become more clear and more reliable. Eventually, ships are able to use radios over morse code to communicate between one another. Vacuum tubes in relation to computers were important, but highly inefficient. The early computers required many vacuum tubes and consumed massive amounts of electricity because of that. Transistors have now replaced the vacuum tubes for all of these devices as they more efficiently transmit signals than the vacuum tubes.

Video Art Porject

For my video art piece, I took the idea of how life is short and made it into a video. I took a video of a metronome ticking at 60 bpm as the pace and cut clips of objects around my dorm as well as videos of my friends throughout the semester to play on the beat. By doing so, I hope to convey how moments in life are truly brief and why we should enjoy life while we can. https://youtu.be/CU6nXv6G86U
